Genealogy Microfilm Catalogs

The National Archives has microfilmed more than 3,000 series of Federal records
that contain a wealth of valuable information for genealogists and other researchers.
In these records lie many of the details necessary to document the everyday
lives of individuals in the past and to trace your own family's history.

A comprehensive catalog that lists the microfilm publications by record group
is available, as are catalogs for the Federal population censuses from 1790
to 1930 and subject catalogs that list publications by topic and provide roll-by-roll
lists of contents.
